The Case of the Plagiarized Book

On July 23, 2015 Alice Keeler sent out a simple tweet:

So…. The “other” Google Classroom book on amazon stole my blog and my screenshots and shamelessly published my content no credit

This tweet led to an interesting series of events that can be used as a teachable moment in the classroom regarding plagiarism and a teachable moment in the teacher’s lounge regarding the power of the PLN.
